Alliance Comment to Advisory Council on Alzheimer’s Research, Care, and Services

The Alliance continues to push back on CMS’ unprecedented restrictions on Alzheimer’s treatments – a practice that undermines the FDA’s authority as the nation’s real biomedical agency.
While severe flu symptoms can have long-term implications on your health, we often do not realize how serious it can be. Each year in the United States, flu infections result in hundreds of thousands of hospitalizations and tens of thousands of deaths from related complications.
